Kelsey's Poems
The One I Still Love
You're the one I loved deep inside me
then when I told you
you changed your mind
about me
you broke my heart
and yet I think I still love you
everyone tells me that
you were a jerk
and that I'm better without you
but I dont think so
because when I first saw you
I knew you were the one for me.
Time
I sit in class and think of you
try to listen
but I can't get you out of my mind
my love for you
is so strong
why does this feel so right?
but yet so wrong?
You don't love me, so why can't I move on
Maybe
Just maybe in time
You will love me
but only time will tell.
Fair
You say life's not fair
when you don't get your way
Maybe when a guy or girl doesn't like you
But what's not fair is for a child never
to get to know their real parents
You say life's not fair
when you don't get something you want
when you're in a wreck, but its not your fault
But what's not fair is for someone
to leave this world without getting
to say bye to someone special
You say life's not fair
when your sister is killed drunk driving
when your dog gets hit by a car and dies
But what's not fair is for a woman to
carry a baby for nine months and it be a
still born
You say life's not fair
when you don't get the praise you want
when you miss something big because you're sick
But what's nit fair is for a girl to get
an STD because a pervert raped her
I Want
I want a friend who loves me for me
a friend who always has my back
a friend who doesnt judge me on who I like
I want a family who does things together
a family that supports me
a family who gets along
I want a school where we arent so judgemental
a school where you can be who you want
a school where friends come easy
I want a life where I can get all those
a life where I have someone to talk to
who knows what I've been through
a life where I didnt have to go through
what I did
Most of all I want to be the
person who can take what they
get and make the most of it.
I know I can be that person.
Our Class
So much depends
Upon
A teacher with
Knowledge
What should she
Teach
To children not
Listening?

Poems by Kelsey's Friends
Untitled by Shelby Capps
Everytime you cross my mind
I feel a tear run down from my eye
Whenever I hear your name
I feel like I'm going insane
No one knows, not even you
that I'm still falling in love with you
In my own little world
we are together
but in reality, I'm just another
another girl with many dreams so wild
Dreams like you and me
I know as I cry, that we will never be.
Love by Courtney Byrd
When I first saw you
I was afraid to talk to you
When I first talked to you
I was afraid to like you
When I first liked you
I was afraid to love you
When I first loved you
I was afraid to lose you
No that I have lost you
I dont know what to do
Your love is like the sun's gentle touch
Your love is like the rain falling
Your love is like seeing a new baby
Your love is all I need.
You by Ashleigh Eldridge
I sit in class and write about you
you're all I want but yet I can't have,
you know my name but not my feelings,
Everyone knows except you!
You might glance, never a word
Maybe a smile but that's fading fast
My soul is shutting with you outside,
for I try to move on but you're still
in my mind
You pierced my heart but I don't care
for the rest of it still loves you
I wis you could know how deep this is,
but rejection is my biggest fear
Heart of pain but yet of love,
I'll love you till my days are done.

Asphyxia game is concern for police, parents
Asphyxia game is concern for police, parents
By TOM BERRY
Staff Writer
Calloway County and Murray Independent school districts are working with the Kentucky State Police in order to educate parents, students and the community concerning the dangers to children of a national trend in self-inflicted asphyxiation, also known as the “choking game.”
According to a news release from Calloway County Middle School, the Kentucky State Police is sponsoring the meeting next week concerning national trends in asphyxiation, Internet sites and other safety issues concerning the phenonena.
Trooper Barry Meadows, a spokeman for KSP Post 1 in Mayfield, said this morning that the presentation is a public information effort to educate the public about the issue. It will be held March 15 at 6 p.m. in the CCMS media center.
“It will be a PTA program. We're going to be talking about self-asphyxiation or the ‘choking game,'” Meadows said. “We're going to do a program on that to alert parents as to what to look for.”
David Dowdy, public information officer for the Calloway County School District, said that district officials are uncertain exactly what KSP officials will present to the public during an open forum planned at the school next week.
“The Kentucky State Police is presenting that and we really don't know what they are planning,” Dowdy said. “That's about all I know right now.”
Uncertainty about the ages of members of the public that may attend the meeting has led KSP officials to propose offering some details about what will be presented beforehand to school officials so inappropriate content can be withheld.
“They have offered to preview some of this because the meeting is going to be open to the community and we don't know what age groups might be in attendance,” Dowdy said.
Chris Bowman, assistant principal at Murray Middle School, said a similar presentation and parent workshop is now in the planning stage at the school with both KSP and Calloway County Sheriff's Department involved.
